mod6: $key mircea_popescu
shinohai: oh mircea_popescu chic from a few nights ago said thank you for the bitcoin, she loved it.
asciilifeform: also available from buncha folks, e.g., mircea_popescu .
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i've never taken khat, what's it do ?
davout: mircea_popescu: when i was in bsas i could pretty much smell pot on every corner of the street, here not even once, kinda surprising

davout: mircea_popescu: it's pretty good from what i've seen

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: there is no question that it is poor design, you would never encounter such a thing even in undergrad lab

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: where was the 'since 1980s' bit ?

thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: show up in unmarked vans << funny how i know plenty of money launderers who use coinbase.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: were you surprised. Given CDO et. al.?!?!?
asciilifeform: well yes, i grasp that mircea_popescu would have the perp's safehouse broken into and the screaming operator dragged out, tied to a plank, etc
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: unlike, e.g., dragos bios, there are no physical contradictions in the linked piece
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what counts, for the purpose of this observation, as 'obese' ?
a111: Logged on 2016-08-07 02:30 mircea_popescu: the very notion of secret "law"
a111: Logged on 2016-08-05 01:37 mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo wanna bet they'll be right back trying to trade while insolvent, shtylman style ?
a111: Logged on 2016-08-06 21:06 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-06#1516222 << 2 different ips there.
asciilifeform: mats, mircea_popescu, et al : just about any game can be played 'over bitcoin blockchain' and be 'provably fair', this is not the problem, but that ~nobody wants to pay the cost (in time and coin both) of playing over btc telegraph.
phf: mircea_popescu: trinque actually published one, but it's a bit too tied to his particular postgresql requirements
trinque: mircea_popescu: precisely what I'm working on
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: so this'd be more or less al schwartz's 'assembly line of phd' doom.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: is implication here that manual reactor control always must end in a crater ?
phf: mircea_popescu: i will have to think about it, because to be honest i've not given it any thought. i'm not immediately seeing a cause for it though
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: as i understand it, car repo is a routine event in usa, if debtor defaults
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: do they have a french-style 'academy of the language' in ro ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: a certain amount of rng load can be moved to server end (rekeying on that end, and ciphers new session key to pubkey of client, which was presumably generated at his leisure and is adequately entropic)
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, asciilifeform currently eulora messages exchanged between client and server are between 43 and 2048 bytes (really upper limit and rarely seen); this being said, the current system of messages/ exchanges between eulora client and server is quite a mess from many points of view, so it's set to be changed too
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: sure, this is likely a misunderstanding of "intangibles and goodwill" as an asset.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: how does the server rental fee make sense as "intangibles and goodwill"? ☟︎

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: hash as stream cipher ?
a111: Logged on 2016-08-06 00:37 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so im thinking here, without a byte/sec sort of idea of what messaging is liable to look like, we can't really spec anything anyway.
asciilifeform: not really, given that mircea_popescu already solved this problem in his article by describing 'otp pool'
sexysophia: MIRCEA_POPESCU
sexysophia: HI MIRCEA_POPESCU
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: these are literally inexhaustible.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the article mentioned earlier gave a locus. will post when i find it, prolly will have to dig through optical disks.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'd bet that the iron is at least partly 'red herring', and you need some enzyme that magicks the absorption

asciilifeform: recall thread re mircea_popescu's pets and their iron pill ?
asciilifeform: that none of the existing dopes are demonstrably 'great idea for everyone, let's eat with breakfast' is quite a separate assertion from what i read to be mircea_popescu's supposition 'only idiot would try'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu is reading a 'what made them' into asciilifeform's 'dope is a tool like any other, not a devil'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu's analogy of 'overclock' is, as i understand, quite exact.
asciilifeform: the pharmacology of actual dopes is interesting subj, which i will guess mircea_popescu is quite familiar with
asciilifeform: i'd be worried if mircea_popescu began to think much of my models.
asciilifeform: didn't mircea_popescu earlier proclaim 'doping dun work' ?
asciilifeform: but - to move up the stack - mircea_popescu's comment re dopes was, in effect, 'shuddup peon and be content with what nature gave you' wasn't it ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this is just as strange a question as 'how do i distinguish if i am ceo', or napoleon, etc.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: think of afterburners on jet fighter. there are no afterburners on boeing liner. for good reason.
a111: Logged on 2016-08-05 13:54 mircea_popescu: THIS DOESN'T FUCKING MEAN random dicklet from ohio will be a "successful trader" for "doing coke off whore's asscrack"
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: yea her and I had some good convo's about ATITD it's a great game. Not many people have played it, but the crafting system was something really intense for the time period.
PeterL: mircea_popescu https://www.anony.ws/image/NncR the table on your page gets truncated in my browser (chrome)
shinohai: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-04#1514975 <<< in retrospect, I should have mentioned that < 2/3 of this was mircea_popescu always saying "you should qntra" and me finally saying "ok. goddamn. I'll do it already." ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2016-08-05 02:45 mircea_popescu: iirc danielpbarron got that sizable barehanded, too.
mod6: mircea_popescu sings "i did it one step at a time, and it didn't cost me a dime... i got the only one there is around" << lol, great song.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Tis the way of their codebase!

a111: Logged on 2016-08-05 00:40 mircea_popescu: "Testing RSA keys after generation is a fool's quest. This is a nice thing to do to detect some poor implementations, not poor keys. Moreover, it detects only certain classes of poor keys (specifically, those with small factors). It does not detect poorly seeded RNG used in an otherwise correct RSA private key generation." << god i love reading year-old webwisdom/community consensusi.
a111: Logged on 2016-07-03 19:37 mircea_popescu: phf http://trilema.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/wp-mptargz.gpg << it's all there ; run a grep over the files for "fill your own" to see what you need to add ; you'll also need a theme (goes in /wp-content ) and obviously a mysql db.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: can i get a re-link to mp-wp.tar.gz?
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> in other news, qntra is apparently big in japan : http://megalodon.jp/2016-0803-2149-34/qntra.net/2016/08/bitfinex-breaks-fiat-exchange-that-never-had-anything-to-do-with-bitcoin-finally-goes-away/ << win
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Suddenly since piece published responding... slow...
asciilifeform: i get it, mircea_popescu is considerably more familiar with the 'rot yer body, rot yer mind', 'clean the bath 1,001 times' sort of dope user.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: and quite possibly. if anyone cared to reverse the client, all kinds of marvels may yet become possible.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: slack? or slock ?
asciilifeform: (aha, and mircea_popescu will say, 'steal 1,001 of them' but then why not also steal ship.)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it needs such things as locks and seals. the plywood boats are very spartan affairs, lacking even flush toilet.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Firing torpedos... somehow
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the sub in question is not the ru diesel thing, but the plywood handcraft items BingoBoingo refers to, their only defense is to motor in the other direction when they notice pursuit. hence wankery re 'stealth' patrol boats etc.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: at some point torpedos were imagined
covertress waves goodbye to mircea_popescu
asciilifeform: also i would like to buy mircea_popescu's revolver that uses gas to move next round !

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: believe or not, kako was actually complaining earlier, why do i discuss phuctor finds 'there, in the nuttery' and not 'here'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2016/psa-hanno-bock-still-a-deceitful-shitbag << that one
